Freeman, P.A., 2000, Pocahontas No. 3 Coal Bed Resource Areas (Outcrop) in Kentucky, West Virginia, and Virginia: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9OVPA1I.

Summary

This dataset is a polygon coverage of counties limited to the extent of the Pocahontas No. 3 coal bed resource areas. The eastern limit of the coal bed is along the Allegheny structural front, where the bed is either folded to vertical, overturned to the northwest, or covered by thrust sheets in the western part of the Valley and Ridge Province. The western limit of minable coal is in the subsurface and was selected at the 14-inch isoline. The file has been generalized from detailed geologic coverages found elsewhere in Professional Paper 1625-C.

Purpose

The purpose of Professional Paper 1625 is to release the interpretation of assessment and modeling data for the top-producing coal beds in the northern and central Appalachian Basin coal regions. The dataset has been generalized and is useful only in regional studies. Individuals who do not have an internet connection to access the detailed data coverages interactively through GeoDE or who cannot use the ARC/INFO export covers provided on this CD-ROM can use this coverage to obtain limited information on the Pocahontas No. 3 coal bed.
